I see no evidence that either Obama hates America, but I was only mildly surprised to hear the Democratic Party’s nominee for First Lady say that she had never been proud of her country before her husband’s recent electoral success in his campaign for the presidency.
Since the McGovernite takeover of the world’s oldest party in 1972, and especially since 9/11, most leaders of the party say and do for free what America’s enemies would gladly pay them to say and do.
The madrassa educated Osama bin Laden regularly quotes prominent Democrats in biennial missives from his cave echoing his grievances against the America the infidel as justification for the terrorist war being waged against the United States. Iran’s mullahs and their front man president as well as Saddam Hussein’s former lawyers have regularly quoted elected Democrats in recent years to justify their hatred of The Great Satan as well as, Israel, the Little Satan.
Michelle Obama, like her husband, were “educated” at madrassa-like (sans any belief in God) Ivy League blame America first institutions to be ashamed of America. Millions of Blacks and Whites are victims of the 1960’s born academic, mainstream media and Hollywood Fifth column in this country that has robbed them of their individuality and the joy of the love of one’s country by projecting their own racism onto the GOP and most whites.
Like I said early last year, Barack Obama is an Out of the Mainstream Liberal McGovernite, but the Obamas have suffered a double whammy via the left’s use of “Black Power” to thwart the power of Martin Luther King’s dream and the objective fact that most American whites now and have for decades embraced that color-blind society dream. The Obamas’ formal education has been reinforced by the black nationalist, Hate America church they have attended for years in Chicago. The pride they exhibit is their grievance ideology fueled “community organizing”, i.e. the democratic party’s vile recruitment method of ginning up hate against America among the less educated denizens of inner cities that heretofore hadn’t thought to blame “The Man” for their lot in life.
Given all that, it would be a miracle if Michelle had been proud of the USA before 2007.
Of course, her gaffe (how the media defines the speaking of vile truths about the Left that they would prefer be kept secret) is now being “explained” as only referring to pride in American “politics”, not America.
Fooey!
How are our “politics” any different in 2008 than in any previous election year, other than that her husband is a candidate? They aren’t. Moreover, her statement is consistent with what she and her husband have said in other contexts, not to mention what they and most liberal dems have not said for most of the past 40 years.
The quotes of American presidents Barack is proud of, that were “borrowed” from Massachusetts governor DuVal Patrick, end in 1968. Michelle says her husband is the only man that can save America’s soul.
The Obamas, like most liberal dems since 1972, very rarely volunteer their pride in America, and especially not the achievements of its military forces abroad. Rather, they speak of the need for us (non-military) to “protect” or “kids” from our own Commander in Chief.
Obama wants to be President so he can hide the Army, Navy, Air Force and Marines in Yucca Flats so that they are the last killed? Or as they protect them with words?
I left the dem party after 18 years an activist and official in no small part due to the evolution of racism as a cancer on the party, as well as the party’s aggression inviting appeasement and hostility to faith on God. The party treats blacks like disabled children, and their race-based laws since the assassination of MLK, Jr. 40 years ago this coming April 4th, have had the effect of disabling millions, not just Michelle.
I was very disheartened by several black callers into Dennis Prager’s radio show last week, even from conservatives, that said until Obama’s recent successes, they hadn’t felt “all in” as fully patriotic Americans.
Who is responsible for this? The dems would say the much overblown Nixon “southern strategy” in 1968/1972 to woo former dem party racists into the GOP.
For democrats, it’s always 1860, 1929 or 1964 in America if a Republican occupies the White House.
Earth to libs. It is the Year of our Lord 2008.
The blame for blacks not feeling “all in”, lies at the feet of Obama’s party and their leftist masters in the culture whose main message is that no one is all in. We are all members of victimized by whites, groups. Only exceptional personalities could resist 40 years of brainwashing. The ones that do, like Clarence Thomas and Condi Rice, are vilified as Uncle Tom betrayers of their “race.”
The left is “all in” for the idea that skin pigmentation limits one’s ability to think for oneself, an idea that is anathema to all America stands for.
The GOP needs to get “all in” to denounce the left in no uncertain moral terms. President Bush has done well with his “soft bigotry of low expectations” and appointments of blacks to positions of great power.
But that is not enough, and the real issue is about much more than race. It is about morally and intellectually bankrupt modern day liberalism and its vessel, the Democratic Party.
Achieve King's dream with equal treatment
Now, what about Caucasians?
I became active in the Democratic Party mainly due to my disdain for the racism I saw in the 1970s. Happily, I watched most of the Republican racism melt under the weight of King's mainstream American and Judeo-Christian moral arguments. Unhappily, I watched disturbing pathologies develop within my party and its members.
Then, during my five years in Atlanta before moving to the Queen City, I experienced what I call a "conservative epiphany," in large part due to the covertly racist behavior of fellow liberal Democrats in their treatment of blacks as inferior victim dependents and their overt disdain for the Christian faith that inspired King.
Radio talk show host Dennis Prager recently described being shown a video of people reacting to a talk show organized by a firm that specializes in analyzing such shows for their producers. Prager noticed that the carefully chosen panel included no blacks. The firm explained that in their previous experience they discovered that after a black person gave their opinion about a show, white people would rarely offer differing opinions for fear of being deemed racist.
This condescending and misplaced white guilt and fear of the Political Correctness Police must end.
Face down the PC crowd
I don't remember Daddy's answer to his eldest son's innocent inquiry some 39 years ago, but there is nothing I better remember than the way he lived his life. Dad employed the non-race-based Golden Rule found in Matthew's Gospel as he coached some of the first racially integrated little league baseball teams in my hometown and insisted that blacks employed with him at Southern Railway be held to the same standards as whites.
King based his civil rights message largely on that New Testament passage, which admonishes us to do unto others as we would have them do unto us, as well as the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, which acknowledge equality before our Creator and require equal treatment under the law.
Quite simply, whites must stop treating blacks as inferiors, and muster the courage to face down the PC crowd to make King's dream more of a reality.
When we can re-expose the sins of such liberalism that great majorities were educated on in the 70’s and who saw Reagan’s conservative policies correct, then we will have a chance at having fewer un-proud Obamas in the future so that we can better defeat Osamas.
But even more importantly, my heart aches for the joy too many liberals are missing. America deserves to be loved and it is part of the greatest joy of my life that I was properly educated to realize it, and to live it. I previously described this love libs are missing below:
The maturing of patriotism post-911
Mike Gamecock DeVine @ The Charlotte Observer
The HinzSight Report
The Minority Report
Huck is history in the Race 4 2008
"One man with courage makes a majority." - Andrew Jackson














I still largely think it's going to be up to the minority communities themselves to decide to get off the DNC plantation, though. There is only so much more "outreach" the GOP can do and still stay the GOP. If minorities (not just blacks, but minorities in general) want "all-in" on what this Nation has to offer they had best stop looking to the party of "The MAN is keeping you down" for all the answers.
Alas, that doesn't appear likely to happen any time soon though. All the more the pity.
